EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 16. Walking" captures a moment frozen in time between the years 1872-85. Created by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge, this collotype print measures 22.7x34.3 cm and is housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, USA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking series "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887, this particular plate belongs to Volume III dedicated to women in motion. The image showcases a sequential study of a nude female figure walking with grace and elegance. Muybridge's work revolutionized scientific photography and laid the foundation for early motion picture sequences. Through his stop-motion technique capturing individual frames, he provided invaluable insights into human movement and locomotion. In this mesmerizing photograph, we witness the beauty of movement as each frame seamlessly transitions into another. The woman's nakedness becomes an artistic expression rather than mere nudity as she strolls confidently through space. This image serves as a testament to Muybridge's mastery in capturing not only physical actions but also emotions within his subjects. It invites viewers to appreciate both the scientific significance behind his work and its aesthetic appeal. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of how art can transcend boundaries by merging science with creativity while celebrating the beauty found in everyday moments like walking.
